Breakfast with the Works
From 7 to 8:30 a.m. on Saturdays during the meet, Keeneland offers a family-friendly breakfast option. The Equestrian Dining Room welcomes hungry fans with a Kentucky breakfast for $7. Kids 3 and younger eat free.
On a typical Saturday, more than 1,000 people will eat breakfast at the track, Balog said. Reservations are neither needed nor taken.
During breakfast kids can:
■ Watch the Thoroughbreds get their morning workout before the big race.
■ Learn more about horse racing with ongoing trackside commentary.
■ Enjoy free activities: have their face painted; get their photo taken in mini jockey silks (photos ready to take home that day); pin the tail on the donkey; and magic demonstrations.
A Breakfast with the Works purchase is not necessary to participate in activities.
Saturdays after breakfast
The paddock area is bustling with activity after breakfast. Depending on the day, kids can meet and interact with professionals in the horse industry: equine dentists, blacksmiths and horse farm owners. These industry professionals offer free demonstrations and a question-and-answer time.
From 11:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m., children will be able to meet a true Keeneland icon: Buckey the Bugler. Buckey will be at the Winners Circle for an hourlong photo opportunity and meet-and-greet. Additionally, photos will be uploaded to Facebook where fans can tag themselves for friends and family to see.
From 12:05 to 12:25 p.m., jockeys are in the paddock area answering questions and meeting fans.
